- renewiltord 6y agoOh that's even more painful. Damn, that's unfortunate for the kids going in now.
- mattm 6y agoThis seems more like Lyft trying to actually do the right thing. Training junior engineers remotely is incredibly difficult not to mention interns. From a purely business point of view, the economical thing would have been to just cancel the internships. These interns will probably learn very little and they will be a burden to people who have to manage them since the employees workload will increase with the layoffs that have just occurred and all the uncertainty. I think Lyft should be commended for this move. Yes it sucks to the interns but things are not normal now.
- renewiltord 6y agoTo clarify, I'm more sympathising with the interns than blaming anyone. Obviously, in these trying times I understand the constraints companies are under.
